How to access Zip drives with Apple Watch

Iomega introduced a portable floppy disk storage system in the mid-90s. Although medium to high capacity disks were expected, this format was never popular enough to replace disks. Soft 3.5 inch standard. In the early 2000s, rewritable USB flash drives and optical disks provided the beginning of Zip drives.

Recently, a YouTube user tried to access the Zip drive from the Apple Watch. This YouTuber has created a feat by using Rumpus, an FTP and WebDAV server with integrated web file manager. In short, the software allows you to access folders or drives on your computer via a remote web browser. As long as the device you are using has a basic web browser, the tool will work.

But the Apple Watch doesn't have a web browser, does it?

WatchOS 5 can display HTML content when sent in iMessage or via email, so Rumpus's web file manager will work in that interface. This person sent himself an iMessage with a link to the shared drive and it worked. He can view the contents of shared data on a Zip drive, create new folders and even rename and delete content as he wants.

Again, this is not very realistic, but you can try, for the simple fact that it combines new and old technology in a way that most people would never think to try.

Hope you are succesful.
